What is Preventative Dentistry?

Taking care of your kids’ teeth is more than just fixing cavities. Our goal is to stop those cavities before they start. Our secret weapon? Preventative dentistry. We’re not just teaching your kids about oral health; we’re helping them build habits now that’ll keep them happily chewing and grinning for life.

At our visits together, we’ll teach your children how to take care of their teeth, address developing issues before they become big problems, and keep your children smiling.

We’re dedicated to staying ahead of your child’s health, taking a proactive approach instead of reacting. Our aim is to maintain their oral health and not let issues escalate.

Listen and Teach

We’re eager to provide the right support for your family’s hygiene routine. Our goal is to empower your children big and small to develop healthy independent habits.

“Both of our kids have seen the dentists here since they were babies, and we love it. The hygienists are so good with kids and are focused on building positive associations with dental care; they never pressure kids to do anything that feels scary or uncomfortable. The doctors are patient and great with kids too. We’re always on and out quickly, and my kids actually enjoy their dentist visits!”

Why Preventative Dental Care for Kids Matters

Let’s keep Ft. Collins smiling!

Did you know cavities are the most common preventable disease?

Here’s how preventative check-ups can help:

Clean Sweep

Imagine plaque as the sneakiest party crasher in your kids’ mouths, made up of saliva and leftover nibbles and full of bacteria. When we sweep away all that plaque, it sends a message to that tooth-eating bacteria that the party is over!

Goodbye Gum Disease

Plaque bacteria doesn’t just attack teeth; it can also affect gums, leading to swelling, bleeding, and even recession. If left to progress, gum disease becomes incurable. That’s why our focus is proactive prevention and fast treatment.

Healthy for Life

Oral bacteria can lead to systemic diseases in adulthood. Prioritizing dental cleanings and effective habits from an early age can significantly reduce the risk of conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers.

Back-to-School Visits: Why Timing Matters

Getting ready for a new school year might bring to mind images of new clothes and freshly-sharpened pencils, but did you know it’s also the perfect time to visit the dentist?

What

A back-to-school dental checkup to clean your child’s teeth, reinforce healthy habits, and ensure they’re ready to smile all year long!

When

We recommend scheduling during late summer before the hustle and bustle of the school year begins.

Why

Back-to-school dental visits give us a chance to spot any hidden issues before they become problems and ensure that your child starts the school year with a healthy, happy smile.

By prioritizing early cavity prevention, we can stop issues before they become painful, expensive, and disruptive.
